Sure thing man, that match never happens, especially with me being the only person who mains him, and you being the only person who secondaries him


Also the pokemon tournament was good especially the RGV winning part. Everyone on the RGV used a team i designed for them. I hope to see it reappear in future events in houston

Yea man I'm saying. I like to play with him he is sooooo fun. Your PT was insane, I don't really know the match-up against him too well, because my PT is mainly an Ivy and grab with everybody else. Your Squirtle was absolute pwnage. I'm going to have to work on that. I had never seen anybody use a good PKMN Trainer in person. Lol, I thought mine was good. The other day I ***** Flip's Snake. Then when we mm he takes the set.

Tell me the next time your coming so we can friendly some more!

Mind if I get in on the PT dittos? I'm good with Ivy, decent with Squirtle, but bad with Charizard. I haven't foughten a PT offline since HOBO 4, so I need experience fighting them :)

1: UltimateRazer (snake)- We didn't get to do our MM! I heard you played call of duty. If you want to play someone that is too sick in that game just send me a friends request. Not joking.
2: Gnes (diddy)- THE GREATNESS. I will be waiting for that re-match. Coolest person from houston hands down. Where had you been when i attend other tournaments?!?!? Next time ill be in charge of some drinks, i won't let you down like Le thien.

4: Fliphop (diddy)-chill funny person, Wish i could of played you some singles
5: Lee Martin (lucario)- It was fun hanging out with you, but from all the tournaments i dont think i ever really played you lol. My favorite from your 1000 characters was wario.
5: mikeHaze GBD (marth)- too good, couldn't even touch you
7: UTDZac (GW)- Man have you improved so much since WHOBO, its ridiculous. So many random things that work so well. Teach me how to always get 9 cause i know you figured it out already, i promise i wont tell. Thanks for the advice even if i dont listen lol. Hurry and go make some more videos cause i improve by watching your vids. Aside from that It is always a pleasure to hang out with you, very smart person. I hope one day we are at grand finals and I dont mean being together :) I know you want to double GW but we'll see!
7: Bwett (yoshi/ddd): Why were you mad about me being in your pool lol, i knew you were going to beast me anyways :) your yoshi is too **** sick. I mean who even thinks of these weird combos?!? Bwett does. Nice hanging out with you. I didnt want to play you guys in teams :p

17: Hylian (IC)- most intense match!! holy ****! i am an idiot lol. Cant believe i fell into a hylian up smash.... from a single climber. Good matches! I was also fun to chill with you on the car rides. Maybe ill go to visit Austin bars since you are a bar tender :p
17: Infinity (wario/kirby/diddy/gw)- I did not ruin your friendlies :) haha sorry about that. You were on the phone and didn't say bye to me :( Talking to you all tourney is the best man, keep it up and good luck in your future relationship. I wanted to buy you a beer as a present!

17: Shuz (kirby)- Never played you. your characters looked scary

The tournament was pretty fun. Overall, I enjoyed it and think it went fairly well. As for feedback, there was one thing that kinda bugged me. It didn't ruin my experience, but as a TO, I know that hearing about the not so awesome parts can help make future events that much better.

My only real concern is with how the stations didn't seem occupied by tournament matches when it seemed like there were plenty of matches that could be played. I mostly noticed this when teams were transitioning into pools. I know a lot of this comes from having such a large turnout for Brawl and more people for the other games. Even with the speaker, people might not hear or notice you calling their name for a match or may be outside or whatever. Actually getting people to a TV to play their match/ pool can be a lot harder than it should.

Something that I've personally found helpful is to have a two part/person system. The first part is a person who calls the match. The second part (this could be multiple people) actually seek out and find the players and make sure they know where to go and who to play. It's worked really well for me in the past, though it does give the hosts more work to do. Still, this can cut down the time by a good deal. A ten minute delay in a match could mean a ten minute delay of the tournament because of the other matches that it holds up. Cutting down even a few minutes for each match can really add up.

Again, I enjoyed the tournament, and I'm not complaining. I just want to bring to your attention something that could be improved so the next one can be even better, you know?

Now for shoutouts:

Roy - Our match and friendlies were a lot of fun, and I learned a lot. I hope I get the chance to play you again!
Melee1 - Definitely my favorite set of the day. It was too close! You got me at the end, though, haha. I'm waiting for my rematch!
Jerm - You're gonna have to make it to the next LasT, okay? We also need to play again.
Error - It was fun playing against your Olimar. Too bad we didn't get to play more.
CY - We didn't get to play again, though our set last time was tons of fun. Next time?
Xyro - I enjoyed the tournament. Also, why is my part of my name starred out over the picture?
Magik - You showed me that I really don't know how to handle Squirtle. Stale moves + fatigue + bucket braking made me think I had a chance at the end of the last game. It was a cool ending to our match, but I'll have to make sure I end up on the other side next time, haha.
Esca - Thanks! I keep trying to get better, and I guess something's working. We didn't get those friendlies in, so I guess we'll have to wait until some other time. Good stuff in teams.
Light - It was cool meeting you, and our games at Seiya's were fun.
Blaine - Good job! You last game against jS was cool to watch. That Up B spike was awesome, haha.
Kingdom Come - Our games in pools were fun. I kinda wish I could've seen your Toon Link, though.
Anthony/ ROHN - Also, good games in pools.
Justin - You pool was pretty tough, and you played really well. I was certainly impressed.
Battousai - You pool was also pretty tough. Good job on almost making it out. I wish I could've seen your match against the Ike.
Tallman - Nice meeting you, too. I guess it's good I didn't enter Pokemon, since we needed to get going and whatnot.

I know I played/ talked to more people than this, and I'm sure I enjoyed it, haha.

Oh yeah, I think Blaine used primarily ZSS, not Samus.

Even with the speaker, people might not hear or notice you calling their name for a match or may be outside or whatever. Actually getting people to a TV to play their match/ pool can be a lot harder than it should.
Pools started late because we wanted to ensure that everyone in a pool could play all of their pools matches at once instead of waiting/interrupting doubles. Pools started very slowly at first, but once more people got knocked out of doubles, more pools could get started. Surprisingly, most pools finished extremely fast, especially when they had the freedom to use two setups at a time. This method probably wasn't very optimal, but we still finished. Honestly, doubles really did hold everything back. I don't think doubles should have been done first in this case.

The only issue I had was that someone left my pool, I guess because he felt he would not advance, but decided not to tell me. People really need to tell the pool leader when they need to leave and only for really important things. <_<

As for announcing matches, I usually announce once or twice at different time intervals. And then give a final warning. I know some people tune out all noise when they play a match, but please PLEASE try to listen for you match. If you can't, then get someone watching to listen for you. Be glad I give multiple warnings, because Xyro would just outright DQ them after the first warning.

Kingdom Come - Our games in pools were fun. I kinda wish I could've seen your Toon Link, though.
Anthony/ ROHN - Also, good games in pools..
Yea, Shoutouts to the dudes in my pool. I already gave George and RoyR (The R stands for ****) shoutouts.

But Anthony ggs, I never thought I would ever go G&W in a tournament. I still can't believe my spotdodging failed like 5 times and when I finally spotdodged correctly I won. Great Ness!

Rohan ggs man I felt kinda bad that you were placed in my pool and you didn't win a set. Maybe next time bro, just keep working at it. I hope to friendly y'all again soon.

FakeGeorge, Dude those matches were awesome. Pokemon Stadium 1 + Ganon= Not soo good. But even then both sets were super close. I remember in the second match we both killed eachother from midstage on SV at the exact same time. Man, I was second guessing myself all day for not picking my main. But, it's all good. Come to the next Hobo and I'll go Tink on you. Be sure to use G&W though <_< great games man.

FakeGeorge - Thanks for giving me a ride to Houston. It was cool getting to know you better and playing your GAW a little more.
Light - Pretty cool dude. Nice Shiek, first I've ever seen xD.
Takeurlife - It was fun getting Whataburger with you for the first time and watching you attempt to play MvC2 xDDDDD. I think my few Marth dittos with you were the most fun I had all day.
Seiya - OMG, you are like the nicest dude that I've ever met. I would have loved to stay another night at your place, but it wasn't up to me. Thanks :]]]
Esca - Stop being so mean xDDD You're cool though
KT - Ha, my jokes about you being a bad smasher cause you're a girl were just that... jokes. Talking to you definately made the tourney better since none of my LA friends were there besides like 3. Hah, you spiked me against the stage once. Come to New Orleans!
JNIG- I see you all the time, you dun get a shoutout. hah
Lee - was fun as hell riding with you to Houston. Singing Senses Fail in the car... whooping me at tetris (reverse controller johns) and the next day when we went over to mah family's house and my sister's friend call you a loser for playing video games. XDDD Even my mom was like "He's such a nice boy"
PK_Fire - Lol, learn to chaingrab with DDD. xD. It was fun teaming with you and running out the clock in our money match. Oooh, and sorry for picking random and SD'ing and taking your stocks before I killed you in that team match vs those girls. I figured we'd we win anyways, so I'd make it fun.

-edit-

Anyone I forgot.... sorry, I have bad memory when it comes to people.
